DSST Intro to Modern Middle East - PatsGirl1 - 12-19-2007
Anyone taken this? It actually looks really interesting- the IC cards seem pretty applicable, but I'm wondering how else one would prepare for it?
I did a cold run through on the cards and was getting about 75-80% already so I'm wondering what else I would use to review, since I may be able to take the test and do ok on it.
Anyone have any information on it?

I take it Friday online with only instantcert.
I'll let you know how I do.

That would be great! I haven't been able to find anything on it, really.

Here's a Google results page for this forum, using the phrase "Modern Middle East".
You will find PLENTY of useful feedback in amongst those links.
On a personal note: I thoroughly enjoyed studying for this exam, but thoroughly despised actually taking it. I was thoroughly convinced I had failed it, but thoroughly suprised when I passed.
If you really NEED to take it, I can assure you that it IS passable. However, this is one of the very few exams I would actually recommend people stay clear of, if at all possible. It's just not worth the brutal beating this exam gives you on your way to passing it!
There are many less troublesome alternatives to this exam.
Take heed all that may,

Deleted because I PM'ed him instead. Too much I want to say but won't in front of everyone.
Snazz- I did the search already (I guess in my future posts I'll preface everything by "I already searched, but...") but didn't find anything close to what I was looking for, other than it's hard and Vietnam is an easier test, and people are having a hard time with it. I appreciate your help, though.
